Abstract

The support (1) for a measuring scale of a photo-electric position measuring device is of metal and thus optimally matches the thermal coefficient of expansion of a machine tool or measuring machine. The measuring scale (4) is located on a surface area (2) which has an amorphous structure (3). The amorphous structure (3) is achieved by re-fusing and has properties like glass which ensures a high-quality surface quality. <IMAGE>
